In setting up pedal boards, there are some effects I would have on pretty much all the time, like delays or boosters. In particular I find that the Xotic EP-Boost is an always-on pedal for me. I would also think a B-Buff would fall into the same category. Some of these thoughts echo Pete Cornish's view that extensive pedalboards are better off with high quality buffers to overcome loading. Any thoughts?
